Hello, I was in a thrift store today and I found a pair of Maytags in Harvest Gold. They are a matching set. The washer model was HA806 with serial letters YH. The dryer was a GD808 with serial letters ZU. Does anyone know what year these were made? They are in very nice condition - $150.00 for the pair. (Wish they were white though)...I have always wanted a set with the glass control panel with the flourescent illumination. Sorry...I don't have a picture. |

I love my 806 washer - so versatile and with a 50 hz pulley and belt set - actually performs like a washer should with a big load! Gary, is that dryer electronic control? That washer was fairly TOL, even more versatile than the 806! If the dryer is as nice as the washer and electronic control, then it might be worth the price, but if the dryer is an auto-dry (temp controlled automatic cycle) then maybe a little less? They are, after all, 20+ years old ;-) |

These are from about 1984 - 1986. The washer must be the TOL A712. I have the US brochure somewhere. And they defintely have the slower stroke helical drive transmission: you can tell from the agitator. Personally, i think they are defintely worth $150.00 as I have paid more than that for just the A512 washer. Cheers Leon |

Gary, grab these. What the hell are you waiting for? These are the pair I have in my kitchen! They are the last of the good Maytags... the 12 series, and that is the TOL washer. Grab 'em!!! Bobby in Boston |

This was not a great as the center dial classics, but certainly more durable than when Maytag started blanketing the line with Norge, Tragic chef and Admarial styled machines in the 90's. |

I hope someone is still monitoring this site. I have an opportunity to buy a Maytag A810 washer and dryer. What would be a fair price? Thanks! |

I just posted these - would these interest you at all, they're TOL A712 washer and D612 Dryer - for only $100 in your area, maybe? Only disadvantage MIGHT be the gas dryer, versus electric, if that's what you need.
